How does schizont appearance change during their development? The schizont form we see reflects successive cycles of asexual division that eventually result in the formation of multiple separate "merozoite" forms that are released as the red cell breaks down. Each merozoite then goes on to infect another red cell. This is therefore a progressive process and schizonts will look very different depending on which stage of development they represent. Below are images of schizonts at different developmental stages. THE INITIAL ASEXUAL DIVISION xxxxxx A B xxxxxx. IMMATURE SCHIZONT APPEARANCES xxxxxx A B xxxxxx.
